Endgame near for Grove Farm land purchase plan in Sharpsburg
Maryland transit officials weigh paying at least 600000 to acquire two parcels near the Grove Farm where Lincoln met McClellan after Antietam. The 30 acre Schuhly farm faces preservation vs. development clashes since 1985 amid rezoning fights and rising land values. The Sharpsburg American Legion lot may fetch about 75000. Mt Airy at Sharpsburg Limited Partnership land remains under talks.
